Classy defender Heath Shaw will miss Greater Western Sydney’s clash with Adelaide at Adelaide Oval on Sunday because of a hamstring injury.

Shaw suffered the injury in the Giants’ loss to the Western Bulldogs last weekend. The Giants vice-captain will join ruckman Shane Mumford (knee) on the sidelines.

Midfielder Will Hoskin-Elliott will undergo a fitness test after being subbed out with a corked thigh last weekend. Dylan Shiel is available to return following a quad injury that has kept him sidelined since Round One.

Lachie Whitfield (foot), Rhys Palmer (hamstring), Sam Schulz (shoulder) and Tim Mohr (knee) remain on track to return to the field in the coming weeks.
